Two words: Don't bother. Overpriced ($500aud 2pax) and vastly over rated we were looking forward to coming here, OMG what a disappointment, I don't where to start. 300gm waygu beef for $215. Not wagyu and tasted more like the steak from a local pub. The...service. What service? there was none, we ordered 5 dishes, they all came at once except 1 appetiser, there was 2 of us and it was insane that the food waqs not more spaced out. It was the most expensive and the most disappointing meal we had here. MY advise? stay home and save yourselves the grief. Please don't start me on there crazy booking policy. Avoid at all costs.......More

On a 10-day skiing holiday with friends, the dinned at this place was by far the most expensive and by far the worst - by a very long shot. My view is that this is a place built entirely on hype with no substance to...back it up. The food is very average at best and the service is shocking. Avoid at all costs. The first red flags appeared when we looked at the menu. Most of the dishes had no prices. There was a picture of the head chef, but really, who cares about insignificant details such as prices? Right? There was a Specials board that had no prices either. Not very helpful. The waitresses were fumbling - one took a couple of minutes to turn her service app on before she could answer any questions. When our chosen sake turned out to be unavailable and she offered us a substitute, she couldn't answer any questions about the new sake. Triple minus for knowledgeable staff. We ordered quite a lot of food. The service staff made no attempt to space it out - practically all of it was delivered at once, which meant that half of the dished were going to get cold by the time we got through the first ones. Triple minus for attentive service. The food was extremely average. The "star" dish (in the ironic sense) was the steak, which was Y16,000 for a 300g sirloin. It so happened that the previous night we had an equivalent dish at another restaurant - that was unmeasurably better and at 1/4 of the price. The other dishes were equally overpriced and equally below-average. The only exception was the steamed daikon appetiser, which was the cheapest and the smallest choice. The dinner was the equivalent of A$250 per person, but the quality of the food justified perhaps A$50pp. This is perhaps the most over-priced, over-hyped tourist trap on the mountain.

Definitely recommend this place. Nice and cozy atmosphere and lovely staff. The yakitori were cooked and flavoured to perfection. A bit on the expensive side for what it is - but gotta expect that in Japan in peak ski season.

Food servings were small and extremely expensive. Not value for money at all. Taste was below average.

Finally managed to book this restaurant when we went to Niseko last season. The best dish was the special beef but it was expensive. Other dishes like salad, skewers were also very tasty. Our bill was above average spent of a meal out in Niseko...but we felt it was worth it.More

Must make reservation early. Yakitori was BBQ just right. Must order their grilled chicken (salted), grilled zucchini with cheese and grilled mushrooms wrapped with bacon. The cheese cake was a slight disappointment though.

Overpriced and ordinary at best. This restaurant was really disappointing. It was overpriced for what can only be called ordinary food. Service was fine, booking handled well. Atmosphere was like any normal unassuming Japanese restaurant. It’s a tasting menu. Unfortunately it’s difficult to understand and...the pricing particularly confusing. We essentially had starters and left. Pizza on the way home!More

Fantastic dinner at a local restaurant in Hirafu. Did not expect much as we were invited by family. Small restaurant but can reserve a table. Good service with an extensive Wine and Sake list. I just stayed with Sapporo Classic. The menu underplays the deliciousness...of the food served. The price of some items might deter some from ordering it. It is reasonable for a fantastic meal. Sashimi plate ¥15000 300g Waygu, perfectly cooked to medium rare, melt in the mouth ¥20000 Deer and Oysters on skewers- absolutely a must try. Love it - good food and came to A$130pp. Look at the pictures.More

Bang bang has maintained a good standard of both food and service over the years. Much better than competitor abucha - which has become a factory.

We chose this restaurant because of the good reviews it has had, but were disappointed. The food was reasonable but portions were tiny and incredibly expensive. Service was very slow. Cannot recommend.

Had to make a reservation prior to visiting the restaurant. But the food served is fantastic, and excellent service. Highly recommended to try to steak, and the grilled cheese with crackers.

Went there due to the good comments and ratings on Tripadvisor with my girlfriend and another couple. All of us were pretty disappointed. The seafood dishes were quite good, the rest was just boring and overpriced. 64'000 yen for 8 local beers, 18'000 yen for...an unseasoned veggie platter which only includes a few cherry tomatoes, 3 peaces of eggplant, 2 shiitake and onions, 25'000 yen for 6 pieces of a standard salmon. Every single dish was unseasoned and boring. Never again..More
